Matic claims Chelsea deal about to be concluded

Serbian youngster Nemanja Matic has claimed talks are underway with Chelsea for a move to Stamford Bridge from Serbian club Kosice. "The London club are very interested about seeing me in their ranks this summer," the 20-year-old midfielder told the Serbian Daily Press.

"I've left the whole matter up to my agents. The talks are being conducted on a daily basis and I think that everything will soon be finished.

"All in all, there's a possibility that I'll become a Chelsea player in the next few days. It's important that my club Kosice, where I won recognition as a player, is satisfied.

"I have a contract with them for another one-and-a-half years and I hope it will end in the best possible way."
